    Initially I thought the Mutant was the best figure of the line but it looks like Doc out did himself with the Phatom. I can't write enough about what Doc Mego has done for the retro movement. He's amazing, unstoppable and humble.
    If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

        I wonder if Flattula hands (featuring the crest ring) would fit Emce Drac? They're paler, too.

              So, what about wave 5?

              Invisible Man &...Mole Man? Mr. Hyde? Were-wolf of London?

              And wouldn't it be awesome to finally get a Dracula's Daughter figure (why did sideshow ignore her)?

                If they did Mr. Hyde, it would have to be the version from A&C Meets Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, since the other famous versions were from different studios.

                Werewolf of London would be cool. The only problem with Dracula's Daughter is she's pretty plain looking.

                I'd love for them to make a Larry Talbot figure, but I don't see that happening.

                  ^Oh, I realize Hyde would be the Westmore "Caveman mask" version lol.

                    Invisible Man is a must, lots of possibilities for the other slot, Mole Man, Son of Dracula, Werewolf of London, and would love to see Rondo Hatton from House of Horrors.

                      Mole man is most likely, but I do like the idea of Hatton's Creeper.

                        still think a PD line would do well with Nosferatu, the Manster, the Party Beach Hot Dog monster, and a couple more

                            Oh, my. Emce's horror line IS getting MUCH better. The Wolfman was neat, Frankie just needs a Karloff resin head same with Drac, he needs a Lugosi [or Christopher Lee!] head. I agree that emce mad a HUGE leap with the lovely Creature from the Black Lagoon. But, this Phantom of the Opera is just amazing. So good that it makes up for the repulsive Bride of...... London After Midnight next please good Doctor.

                              Yep, that would be great!
                              Though it might be a tougher sell to a general audience who aren't familiar with this character...

                                London After Midnight was actually an MGM movie, so I would have to come under a different banner, although I think the title and vampyre character are public domain. The film is non-existent domain, unfortunately.
